"I took a chance on this CD (featuring popular and classically derived Italian melodies) based on the captivating cover photo of a Tuscan scene. Well, the music therein is as beautiful as the cover art, and I was delighted. The arrangements are lush and the playing by the Globalis Symphony Orchestra (whoever they are) is first-rate. Sixteen tracks in all, the selections range from opera tunes, such as the lovely "O Mio Babbino Caro" by Puccini to the popular "Con Te Partito" by Sartori (better know as the tear-jerker "Time To Say Goodbye" popularized by Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman).
Cuddle up with the one you love, open a bottle of wine, light some candles, and ENJOY!!!!"

"For anyone who enjoys classical music, this is a "must-have"! I have listened to the cd every day since it arrived, sometimes several times a day. It is soothing and restful, a lovely calm in the midst of a busy life."
